Estes Magician (Butterfly Rocket)

2015-03-14 10:57:00Z

Description

Strong winds - chute deployed at apogee but winds caused Estes plastic chute tear at the string junction with plastic material on half of the connections. Came down fast, but no damage. Will replace with Nylon chute, definitely a trend on all my estes high flyers.
